I never read this when it was published a long time ago (I think I was in high school when this was out on bookshelves) but I randomly found this in my library’s shelves & thought oh ! Let me see if this was worth the hype a long time ago. Sadly, for me, it was not. I feel like there were too many subplots and not enough wrap up / closure for those plot lines. The Sisterhood came and went. How far away were they from the ocean? Where did these zombies come from ? It was too confusing for me. Plus, the characters didn’t seem distinct or have their own personality traits to make them stand out.
